Hi Rohan,
I can suggest you an approach for this. Try the steps below.
1) Move the button definition to the GET_BUTTONS method of the view controller class. Leave the DO_PREPARE_OUTPUT method as clean as possible. Make sure that the event name is in the same case in the button-on_click parameter and the event handler name (you can check the event handler name in DO_HANDLE_EVENT).
2) As you know there would be NEW STATUS dropdown available to change the status. Go to the getter and setter methods of this attribute. From there there should be an BOL Action which will be triggered. This action takes the status which is set. This is the place where the status change mechanism starts.
3) Try to call the same BOL Action in your event handler COMPLETED. If you want to commit the change to the database, you can call the transaction manager class commit method. You can refer SAVE method of your view impl class.
Hope this helps.
Regards,
Vinay
